In 1841, Joseph and his wife went to Marshall, Michigan, when his son Charles Phillips moved there; Charles returned to Conn. soon, but Joseph stayed for several years. [ 1850 Census has J.

The second Helen " died four months after her return from Louisiana, where she had been employed as a teacher."
